The wolf beastman recalled that femaleâs face and said nothing.
âBecome her mate,â the ape king said in a tone like he was issuing an order.
âApe king?â
The ape king said, âThis is an order!â
âYes!â The wolf beastman replied right away.
As Bai Qingqing had been away to drink water for a while now, Cortis felt worried. He looked over and saw that there was no one by the river, so he instantly got to his feet. âWhereâs Xiao Bai?â
Parker peered around and also got up. âWhere is she? Letâs go and find her.â
After Bai Qingqing finished relieving herself, the instant she got out of the sandpit, she found herself stunned.
Since when did it become so misty? The air was so misted up that she couldnât see anything and could only hear voices talking from all around.
Bai Qingqing rubbed her bare shoulders, feeling a little cold. She tried walking back based on her memory.
âVincent, I heard you obtained a green crystal when you went out this time?â
This was the voice of a female. Bai Qingqing found the voice familiar, but she couldnât recall who it belonged to.
âYes,â a deep male voice replied to the female. Naturally, it was Vincent who spoke.
Green crystal? The energy crystal that can prolong oneâs life and allow one to remain youthful?
Curiosity made Bai Qingqing subconsciously halt in her steps. Amidst the blurry night view, she could roughly see a tall and a short figure. The white tiger whom she had seen earlier in the day drifted into her mind. He still came to attend the bonfire banquet, after all.
âGift me the green crystal and Iâll let you become my male. Howâs that?â The female sounded eager.
âWeâre related by blood.â Vincentâs voice sounded very cold.
âPff.â The female sputtered with laughter and said in a sneering tone, âWho doesnât know you like me? You got that scar on your face from rescuing me. I donât believe you donât wish to become my mate.â
Bai Qingqing thought to herself,?Damn, a family ethics drama!
But this voice sounds so familiar, especially its arrogant tone. Is thisâ¦
The female continued, âSo what if weâre related by blood? Thereâs no problem so long as I donât give birth to your children. Moreover, if you become my male, our tiger tribe will have our power and influence solidified. My father is a four-striped beastman, and you are one too. If weâre one family, who will dare to bully us?â
Bai Qingqing could finally be sure that this was the female who framed ParkerâRosa.
Vincent hesitated a long time, then said, âI only take care of you as youâre the child of my older brother.â
Getting impatient, Rosa urged. âJust become my male. Youâre so ugly and in your thirties, yet no female wants you. Now, with a scar on your face, all the more no female will want you. Youâre not going to have children in any case.â
Vincent rubbed the energy crystal in his palms and said, âBut Iâve already eaten the green crystal.â
âYou!â The infuriated Rosa raised her hand and slapped Vincent ferociously across the face.
Bai Qingqing was startled by the loud slap. She retreated a step and accidentally stepped on a tree branch, making a cracking sound as it snapped.
âWhoâs that?â
The maleâs deep and booming voice caused Bai Qingqingâs heart to tighten. She felt her vision blur, and when she could see clearly again, she saw a tall and well-built male standing before her.
âFemale?â Vincent kept away his murderous aura, and Bai Qingqing finally could breathe again.
âSo itâs Parkerâs female.â Rosa had walked over too. She gazed at Bai Qingqingâs hair with an amazed look in her eyes. Her jealousy filled her voice with contempt. âThe ugly always do all sorts of weird stuff. Youâre even keeping long hair.â
Bai Qingqing stroked her hair, and a slyness flashed across her eyes. She raised her head and looked at Vincent. âAh, I finally found you. Weâre waiting for you to eat meat with us. Come on.â
With that, she pulled Vincent with her and left.
